“Two roads!”

I have and I do hear from time to time people say I sure wish I could see into the future and know what lies ahead of me…and I usually will say well I don’t think I would care all that much to see into my future because I would know the bad that lies ahead of me..and I honestly don’t think I could be able to face it…if I could see what was going to take place and or happen in my life…but this morning my husband and I were talking and he said you know honey, what would be great is if you could see into the future and what would lie ahead of us…but instead of thinking in turn of just seeing into the future he says this..but that we would be able to see two roads paved before out before us..and that we all could look down them roads and see just what would happen…for the one road would be a good road to travel down..and the other would be a bad road…and I said unto him you know I think that people would probably make different choices and different decisions in their lives if there were actually two roads that we all could see layed out before each of us…but as well we continued on talking..and I began to think about the scriptures in the word of God that says this…Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it…Matthew 7:13-14…and I told my husband that we live in a generation as to where people are risk takers…even though they know that there are consequences for their actions..and that with everything we do in one way or another is gonna effect the ones in whom we are around..and ourselves included…but as well we always think never could it ever happen to us…surely we won’t be the ones in whom ends up in divorce..or ends up being an alcoholic…or a drug addict…surely we won’t be the one ending up with lung cancer…or ending up living our lives…saddened…fearful..or afraid…surely will be the ones in whom live a happy life..a joyful life…a life as to where all is great and all is well no matter what we choose to do, to no matter what we choose not to do…cause somehow in our minds…we have this mentality that once in grace always in grace…that Jesus isn’t gonna let that happen to us and our lives..as I said no matter what we choose to do…because God loves us…isn’t that right..isn’t that honestly how people feel?…I believe so guys…now days people don’t want to be corrected…they don’t want anyone telling them the truth…whats right and or whats wrong…because they are their own person…they are adults and can do anything that they wish to do…but I got news for ya…Yes, God does love us…and He loves each of us unconditionally…for the bible says that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us..Romans 5:8…but as well the word of God changes not..Matthew 24:35..and God does not go against His word…so whats written stays the same forever…and with what measure we meet it is and will be measured back to us..Matthew 7:2..and with whatever we sow to, that as well will be reaped in our lives..whether we sow to the flesh or to the spirit..Romans 8:13…for we can’t expect to not be effected by sin..and or it’s ways…for God has called each of us out from darkness…into His marvelous light..1 Peter 2:9..and He tells us in His word to come out from among them and be ye separate says the Lord..2 Corinthians 6:17…so to live the way we want…isn’t at all living…for God desires us and destined us to be living our lives for Him..and when we’re disobedient and don’t listen to the Lord, or His correction than we are only hurting ourselves…for the bible says that whom the Lord loves He corrects..Proverbs 3:12…just as we correct our children because we love them and we don’t want them hurt..the same with God..for you see when the Lord is saying no it’s because God He see’s them two roads that’s our there in front of us…and He knows when we are heading down the wrong pathway…so He does His very best to get us to listen and to stop and turn ourselves around and go back the way we came..for He knows that it is a wrong bad road that we can take ourselves on and how easily it is to take ourselves on that road…for don’t let any of us ever be so foolish into thinking that we can do whatever…because that’s just not so…for guys the Lord, Yes He has a plan for our lives..but as well that ole devil has one…and He does everything he can in his power to get us tempted..to get us to compromise..and to get us believing that we can do whatever and whenever we so choose and so desire to…that it isn’t gonna hurt nothing..but boy oh boy that lie couldn’t be anything further from the truth…so know that the Lord has made each of us wiser than the enemy..Psalm 119:98…so my prayer is that we choose the right way…do the right things..and live the right life…don’t just willfully sin because you can or use Gods grace of forgiveness because you know that God will forgive…because the word of the Lord says you go and you sin no more..John 8:11…we don’t just willfully do wrong..because the Lord has given us discernment..and we know right from wrong…so let us quit living our lives in that so called fast lane…compromising with every decision it is that we make…because you will get ran over…for sin doesn’t happen all at once..it is little by little with everything you let slip and slide..until one day the fruit of that sin will come forth and be manifested…and when it does it isn’t at all a good fruit..or a pleasant one….so daily think about your choices think about the way you yourself are living your life…and if your on that wrong road…turn around and start over today…doing the best you can, to the best of your ability, living your life for the Lord…for there’s no life that’s ever worth living then a life that’s lived for Jesus…for the bible says that Jesus is the way the truth and our life..John 14:6…and Oh what a life we live when we follow the Lord…and sow good seeds and reap them good benefits….there’s honestly nothing at all like it guys, in all of this world…In Jesus name…Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
